Module 3 - Anthropology: The Doctrine of Man

The scope of this third module is to explore what the Bible teaches about man. And what we learn from Scripture about God leads us to a right understanding of man. Men are tireless in their pursuit of understanding themselves. Their origin, their makeup, their identity, their purpose, and destiny, and so on. But true knowledge of man is not found within himself. It is discovered in what God reveals in Scripture. So if you wish to gain a deeper understanding of man, these lectures aim to benefit you. The lectures in this third module, on the Doctrine of Man, are introductory, not exhaustive, and they are intended to furnish you with a foundation that you can build upon in your further studies.

There are several international classical music competitions that are held throughout the year. One of the most famous is the Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto. And you will have competitors who come from various countries. They’ll have spent their whole entire life, hours and hours a day, seeking to master the piano, the instrument of the piano. And they’ll have trained under some of the best teachers in all of the world. There’s a great deal of stress, a great deal of buildup, a great deal of pressure in coming to competitions like this, and everything hangs in the balance—the whole career that they’ve been seeking to build. And there will be a panel of judges that will be present, along with an audience, for this competition. And if they make one mistake, if they miss a single note in a very long and very complex piece, they are immediately disqualified. The least infraction could result in their whole life’s work being lost as a result of it.
